Re: Some enlarged and "tweaked" known photos of Ar 234s

57. On 3 July 1945, "AIR MINISTRY 26" was transferred to No. 6 Maintenance Unit at Brize Norton, Oxfordshire, where it was assigned the RAF serial "VK877". On 7 October it was ferried back to Farnborough for trials. From 29 October to 9 November it was displayed statically in the RAE German Aircraft Exhibition. The RAF serial and the yellow outer ring of the roundel can be seen in this photo.

58. This is another view of "VK877" at the Farnborough Exhibition. Note the distictive nacelle cowl. Smith & Creek, Arado Ar 234 Blitz, (Classic, 2022), on page 310 say that it was "eventually scrapped, presumably at Farnborough".
